title: [Age-related features of cardiac contractility and its adrenergic regulation in catecholamine damage to the myocardium].
abstract: Studies on isolated rat hearts showed that in contrast to 8-month-old animals, in 26-month-old rats the contractile activity of the myocardium increases by the 3rd day after administration of toxic adrenalin doses (1 mg/kg i.m.). The maximum functional response of catecholamine injured hearts to stimulation of alpha- and beta-adrenoceptors reduced in both age groups, while the sensitivity of the myocardium to beta-adrenoceptor agonists in mature rats increased.
